If you’re online, you’re creating data. And that data is saved within the applications you’re using. In other words, you can’t take it with you wherever you go (bye bye playlists outside of Spotify, bye bye following people outside of Instagram). This is where the SOLID project comes into play. The project, led by Tim Berners Lee, the inventor of the internet and promoter of decentralisation online, aims to give individuals full control over access to their data and where it is stored. This would limit the enormous power of big tech. It all sounds promising, so much so that Google, Apple, Facebook, Twitter and Microsoft launched the “Data Transfer Project” to facilitate data mobility between their systems... and SOLID!
